Submit your tool to Submito

Submito is a small product discovery directory for AI tools and software. The free route is a link exchange with its badge, open only on Thursdays (UTC+8); a $19.9 one-time plan skips the badge and adds a featured badge.

Is Submito worth it?

A modest dofollow option if you can wait. Regular listings checked in November 2026 had rel noopener only, so the link passes as dofollow, but some paid sponsored placements carried rel sponsored. The free route has tight rules: Thursdays only, Ahrefs DR above 2, a badge and a 14 to 30 day review. Paying $19.9 gets review in 24 to 48 hours and no badge. The catalog is small, so expect little traffic.

Who should submit to Submito?

Suits makers of AI tools and small web apps who want a cheap or free dofollow link and do not need fast results. Not for brand new domains with DR 2 or lower on the free route, or for anyone expecting launch traffic from a busy community.
